A major winter storm heading for southern Arizona with predictions of several feet of snow in the higher elevations. At about 7:30 am the rain started turning into snow.
By 8:00 am it was all snow.
The hummers were having a tough day.

10:00 am was the peak. It continued to snow the rest of the day but the just above freezing temps kept it from building much more than this.

After a day of bright sun and warming temperatures the snow was retreating fast.
The snow man all but gone.

All's back to normal, just the peak of Mt. Lemon has any visible snow remaining. The high for today is 74.
Coming next, Back on the road.
